Iatrogenic pseudoaneurysm rupture of the middle cerebral artery after an intracranial pressure monitor placement: a case report and literature review
AbstractThalamic hemorrhage (TH) is a devastating disease with a high mortality rate; however, no specific form of therapy has been proven to reduce mortality. Patients with hemorrhagic stroke undergo intracranial pressure (ICP) monitoring. However, cases involving pseudoaneurysms caused by ICP monitoring in patients with intracerebral hemorrhage have not been reported previously. Here, we report a case of pseudoaneurysm caused by an ICP monitor that was fitted due to hypertensive cerebral hemorrhage. (Source: Neurological Sciences)

Case report: PRES associated with fruquintinib in a patient with metastatic colon cancer
AbstractPosterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome (PRES) is a rare, reversible neurological disease that is frequently associated with the use of targeted therapy agents. In this case study, we examine the development of posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome (PRES) in a 44-year-old woman with metastatic colon cancer following 1 month of treatment with the vascular endothelial growth factor receptor (VEGFR) inhibitor, fruquintinib. The occurrence of PRES after 1 month of VEGFR inhibitor administration is a common phenomenon. However, it is noteworthy that this is the first reported case of PRES associated with fru...
